Brenda is a wonderful listener. She listens to me talk about issues, and listens to me try to work it out as I talk out loud about what I’m thinking. Then she gives very good feedback on what I can do about my situation. I look forward to working with her more

Brenda is very easy to talk to about anything. I didn't feel judged or anxious after our visit. I believe she understands and cares.

More about Brenda

  • 24 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello! My name is Brenda and I’m a licensed therapist in Oklahoma. I’ve been providing professional counseling services for over 24 years. I have experience helping people cope with stress and anxiety, grief and loss, lack of motivation, and depression. I’ve also helped people who want to change the path they are traveling in life, to get a new start or go into a new direction.

I have worked in a variety of settings including inpatient mental health. Because of some situations I was exposed to in the hospital behavioral health setting, I'm more laidback than others when presented with usual behaviors or issues.

There are many different types of therapy. I use a variety of techniques from the different therapies to help my clients reach their goals. The focus of therapy is always what you identify that you want to change. Making changes to have a happier and more fulfilling life is never easy and takes courage. I would be honored to help you along that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
